Dear Steve and Interest Group, I sent an email to Guido and posted a proposal on the PyCon Wiki to facilitate an Open Space Track at the python conference. He said I should forward the message to Pycon-interest and Steve Holden to make my interest in helping organize the conference known. I participated in an Open Space track at XP universe last year and it was an interesting way to create a Self-Organizing and dynamic conversation on a variety of topics. It allows conference goers to … [View More]

PyCon IRC channel
by Guido van Rossum Jan. 14, 2003

Jan. 14, 2003

For those interested in helping out with the organization of PyCon, there's now an IRC channel on irc.freenode.net, channel #pycon. It's more effective if people pick a specific time to be there, of course, but any two people might meet there and get something done. If decisions (even tentative) get made, please make sure to mail something to the mailing list too!

I'd like to run a tutorial on the new object-relational mapping framework in the AdaptableStorage Zope product. I presented a paper on AdaptableStorage at OSCON last July, and it went over well, but the software wasn't ready to use at the time. Now the project has matured enough that people can start building their own object-relational mappings. The feature that sets this O/R mapping framework apart from others is that it integrates well with ZODB. Developers can take advantage of quick … [View More]

Jan. 6, 2003

I'm pretty excited about the conference, but I'm not seeing the level of community response (checked the Wiki, this list's archives) that I expected. Am I just looking in the wrong places? Are there a lot of Pythonistas planning to attend, but they're all being quiet an secretive about it? ---Tom
